Put a capo on the 3rd fret. Mark sings this song very deep, so if you want to sing it on own I suggest taking off the capo and sing one octave higher. The chords are given relevant to the capo: Am G These tables are haunted by the ghost of Las Vegas Am G Am Their chips were once mountains but they came here to play Am G They could take me if they wanted but I have nothing worth counting Am G Am And like the sands of Nevada they go drifting away [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/mark-knopfler/103129.html ] Lady luck's still a mystery With her head on my shoulders And I don't know why I still want her to dance I guess that's all history What it is is I'm older And I'm still a fool For a one-way romance Am F G Her dice were red rubies they rolled and they tumbled Am F G And I never saw time running out with my roll Am G And in a wasteland of cut glass my dreams have all crumbled Am G Am And I've paid with whatever I had left for a soul Now the dawn's broken even On an empty horizon No reason for folding No reason to stay It's too soon to be leaving Too late for criticizing And the sands of Nevada They go drifting away ------------------------------------------------------------ That's all folks! |
